Slovak Lutherans

God Bless those clerics who kept beautiful records. Here's a sample of the death records from the village of Castkov in Senica, Slovakia. My great-grandmother Anna Kristofik was born there in 1883. This may be her paternal grandfather's death record. The age is off enough that it may not be him and he is the only one given without additional information. He is Paul Kristofik, widower, aged 75. I'll look in neighboring Sobotiste before I accept this record.
